Could you expand on these excellent explanations a bit more? For example, UA has Saudi Arabian Airlines as a partner right now, but what is preventing that airline from joining Star Alliance?

Does membership in *A imply a committment to certain minimum levels of passenger traffic between carriers, not just within that carrier itself? (for example, an airline has to show that its passengers will use not only its own service, but those of UA, LH, etc.?)
